It is good that you have been able to recieve some strength from coming here. I know it has been invaluable for me also over the past year.

I understand as will most of us here your feelings of struggling with emitions. It is good that you have been able to keep up with some activities even if it is hard.

Great news also that your daughter is actively engaging with her recovery. Really hope things pick up for you soon.

Dogs are a wonderful comfort when caring for a suicidal loved one. Without my dogs I don't know how I would have gotten through the past year with my son and his depression, anxiety,homicide ideation, suicide attempts and drug problems.
I wish there was a magic potion to make it all better, but the reality is it needs time, patience, consistency, and love. You have to be strong at the very time you feel most vulnerable
Then one day you look back and see you are no longer in the middle of the darkest storm, you are just in a grey and rainy day. Then you have a partially sunny day and realise the season has changed without you being aware of it.
Time and love are the real miracles in our everyday life and they can get you through ( along with a good dog). X

Hi @Determined
Just re-reading posts and am so grateful for your care and interest in how things were going with me.
hope your studies and work are going well.

@Dots ❤💪

@Dots. Thankyou for your message
How are things going for you now? I trust your daughter
Is doing better and you have been able to relax a little.
Study is keeping me quite busy at the moment. In the middle of assessment.

@Dots
Thinking of you and your family, truat all is as well as can be.

Thanks @outlander and @Determined for checking in. Brings a smile. Life is chugging along. Our house is finally clean again; amazing how things slide. Fridge is bulging with yummy food. My daughter is back to seeing her psyche which is good. We're also back to a day at a time rather than the minutes I was ticking off a couple of weeks ago.

Thanks for listening and thanks again for checking in.
